Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) Southern Region Governor Charles Mchacha has admonished Leader of Opposition Kondwani Nankhumwa for asking the DPP leadership to channel all the funds realised from the blue night towards helping Cyclone Freddy victims.
Mchacha says what Nankhumwa is saying means disrespectful to the current party leader.
Nankhumwa has openly challenged that he will be standing at a DPP convention and win the party leadership.
What Mchacha has just said confirmed infighting within the DPP after on Wednesday leadership for the Northern Region endorsed former President Peter Mutharika as party torch bearer during the 2025 polls.
DPP vice-president for the North Goodall Gondwe issued the call at a press conference held in Lilongwe, urging all the DPP supporters in the north to support Mutharika.
Flanked by the Northern Region governor Mzomera Ngwira and the party’s treasurer Jappie Mhango, Gondwe said Mutharika is the only person who can unite the party and the country.
He further said that Mutharika initiated developmental projects in the Northern Region hence he is the right person for the presidency.
This is clear indication that divisions in the party are so deep. What Gondwe did yesterday was to block aspirants mainly Kondwani Nankhumwa who has been all over campaigning for the position.
